Gypsy Pasta

After a long day at work, home alone and not one inch of me wanting to shop or order take out resulted in this dish. Which I can say was easy, delicious and pretty, so naturally I fell in love and now make it all the time.

The best part of this dish is that it can be different every time. Keeping a box of pasta in your pantry at all times is a must for this reason! Then add in any veggies or protein you have for a quick satisfying bite.

What you need: (For this version)

Box of your favorite pasta (gluten free or regular both work)

1/4 cup of milk

2 Italian sausages

1/2 red onion

Shitake mushrooms

Micro greens (topper)

Cheese

Salt, pepper, chili powder and chili flakes

What to do:

Pasta-

Bring a large pot of water to boil

Add salt

Add pasta

Drizzle a lil bit of olive oil and cook pasta for about 6 minutes (if gluten free) to al dente

In another saucepan:

Drizzle olive oil and start to heat slivered red onions – on med-high

Add in chopped up sausage after onions start to brown a lil

Turn down heat to medium

Then add in chopped shitakes

Sprinkle salt and chili powder to liking (not too much cause you can always add more)

Mix til everything looks about cooked and turn to low heat

Throw in micro greens

Time to combine:

Drain pasta and let it sit while all the mixings cook

Add pasta back into the pot and add milk

After the milk starts to boil and your pasta starts to get coated add in your toppings and mix til you get a good balance of everything in one bite
